Red Sox, Padres Discussing Mookie Betts Trade 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Fri Jan 24, 2020 12:50 pm

The Boston Red Sox have discussed the possibility of trading Mookie Betts to the San Diego Padres, according to multiple reports.

Recent talks have centered around the Padres sending Wil Myers and prospects to the Red Sox.

While there is legitimate interest on both sides, an agreement is considered a long shot at this time.

Myers is owed $61 million guaranteed over the next three seasons, including a $1 million buyout of his $20 million club option for 2023.

Betts will earn $27 million in his final year before free agency.
